Overall and excellent ship with great food, drink and attentive staff. Entertainment was however dusappointing. The evening shows were of a low standard compared to those we have experienced on several P&O cruises. There were also no expert speakers on sea days. (but numerous presentations by people attempting to sell things)

Embarkation process was a shambles in Istanbul. No control over timed embarkations so took 2 hours to board. However cruise itself was very enjoyable. Excellent service and food. Entertainment was ok - not great variety. Cabin very compact and not great layout. Specialty restaurants were excellent. Ship was tired but was due for a refurb. Really good variety of stops in the Med.
